About

I am an NSF postdoctoral fellow in the Center for Computational Molecular Biology (CCMB) at Brown in Emilia Huerta-Sanchez’s lab and the GenderSci Lab at Harvard. My research is primarily concerned with developing methods and theory to investigate gene tree—species tree discordance, as well as applications of topological data analysis to genomics and introgression detection. I am also interested in how sex is conceptualized and how sex-related variables are analyzed, especially within the context of evolutionary biology.

Previously, I was advised by John Wakeley and Andrew Blumberg in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard and a member of the GenderSci Lab.
